obama is campaign -- obama's campaign sued the secretary of state on the grounds that have been limited in-person voting for veterans only, leading up to the election, was actually creating an unequal playing field, and the courts have agreed with them. so they have opened in person voting on the final weekend before the election. you can do it by mail, in person. it makes a big difference. both campaigns have pushed the absentee ballot. requests are up. in-person balloting, at least in kyle home county -- at least in the democratic base, is running just ahead of what president obama hoped to get in 2008, in terms of appellate requests coming from democrats. that is still a pretty strong turnout. and republicans benefit from that same opportunity. but the in person balloting is really driven by the urban democratic votes. host: we are talking to mark naymik, "cleveland plain dealer" correspondent. call and ask your questions about the election and what issues are on your mind. the democratic line is -- 202- 585-3880. republicans -- 202-585-3881. and a special line for ohio residents --

and another fascinating thing obama gets 43% of the wheat vote, higher than in most states. is it all about the auto bailout, smart move politically? >> it is all about the auto bailout. the chevy cruise which is assembled in ohio has ohio parts. down to the seat covers. and everybody knows that the alternative to the auto bailout would have been 13%, 14% unemployment in that state. chris: is there a national positive for him on the auto front or is it just in a couple of states, wisconsin, obviously michigan, those kind of mi western industrial statse? >> coal being part of the state that's doing well. obviously that message will play better to romney there than to obama. but nevertheless, to back out for a second a look at the economy, generally speaking, you have states important swing states where the unemployment rate is lower than the national average. but the recent set of data we see a brightening of consumer attitudes. we see consumer sentiment and surprisingly at a five-year high despite historically high gas prices. despite a lot of the concerns that this is our e

the obama campaign wanted to concentrate on three states where they got the lowest winning percentages in 2008 except for indiana and north carolina which they conceded, florida, ohio and virginia. since the october 3 debate, florida seems to be gone toward mitt romney. he has been winning almost all polls this. virginia has been even tending a little toward romney in my judgment. ohio has been a little stickier. are the auto bailout is an issue there. if you look at the polls what you will see is white noncollege voters. a group that was 58-40 for john mccain nationally four years ago are not giving romney in ohio that much of an edge. and so i think there is some gain that the democrats have gotten from that -- that huge barrage of antiromney ads they ran before the convention. i would say this, though, sean. i think there is some reason to beware arery of the ohio polls. we are seeing results there in the most recent weeks there varying in between a tie and a five point obama swing. but you we are also seeing in the polls almost all of them the 11 in which the real clear politics .c

let's see, he hopes that barack obama learns something. he accuses him of smoking something, and oh, by the way, he's lazy. and now this most recent thing. when you look at colin powell, why hasn't the romney campaign stopped using this guy on television or at least tried to reel him in of sorts. your thoughts. >> apparently the romney administration, if you will, the romney campaign is comfortable with presenting john sununu as its face when it comes to race baiting about the president of the united states. all of the vicious stereotypes that have circulated about black men at one point or another congregate around the rhetoric that john sununu uses and directs toward barack obama. president obama is lazy. he's ill prepared. he's disengaged. he's not a true american. this is the repetition of an untruth that they believe said often enough and repeated often enough will become true and at least stick to a few people's minds. not the masses of americans, but enough people to make a difference. there's a difference understanding of the swing
